About Charissa
Charissa Bogle is a licensed clinical social worker with 14 years of experience. She aims to make therapy approachable and direct for people feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, grief, or relationship strain. She creates a warm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk through painful experiences and learn practical ways to cope.
Sessions focus on concrete skills as well as understanding patterns that keep problems repeating. The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes.
Background and approach
Her practice draws on therapies that help people notice what matters to them, change unhelpful thoughts, and improve emotional regulation. That combination can help with anxiety, trauma-related reactions, and difficulty connecting with others. Charissa also brings experience supporting people who identify as LGBTQ+ and those who are neurodivergent.
Work often includes developing better communication, setting healthy boundaries, and practicing coping tools for strong emotions. She supports people rebuilding after loss, abuse, or major life changes, and helps those who feel stuck by focusing on small, usable steps. Charissa is based in Tennessee and offers sessions using a mix of live and text-based formats.
She encourages a collaborative relationship where clients help set goals and choose which tools to use. Therapy is paced to match each person’s needs and readiness for change.
Approaches that translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify their values and take actions that matter, even when anxiety or difficult feelings show up. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce distress and improve daily functioning.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life situation. Sessions may combine elements from different approaches so clients get practical tools and an understanding of what drives their struggles.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits for people managing anxiety and stress. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to send quick updates, practice skills between sessions, or check in on a difficult day. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other daily commitments by offering flexibility and multiple ways to stay connected with licensed professionals.
